Alice in Wonderland (2010)
SO I just saw the film today I must say it was far different then the original film .The story fallows a now 19 year old Alice Kingsley as she returns to wonderland to learn things are not quite right and her journey to set right the wrongs of not only the land but also herself. The tone of this film was far darker but if you have seen the film although slightly depressing it makes perfect sense as to why it had to be done. Tim Burtons vision for this film was nothing short of perfection rather it was the locations, the emotion,the character revisualizations or even the locations. Johnny Depp as the mad hatter was a perfect cast to the point of nearly stealing the show . The young woman playing Alice was also amazing her acting and portraying internal conflict were epic. The movie did suffer from a few unnecessary characters the march hair may haunt my dreams forever. Graphically I would have to commit cinema treason and say ... Alice in wonderland surpasses Avatar (please don't crucify me for that) . The acting of Helena Carter ,Johnny Depp, Mia ,Anne Hathaway ,& the voice acting of Stephen frye were superb. This was also my first exposer to the new age of 3-D I did not hate it nor did I view it as necessary . I would say this is a great family or fan movie there were a few parts that may be to dark for small children and a couple of jokes that adults would get but the younger ones wouldn't. I laughed out loud in quite a few different areas and also a few parts that made me jump or just say OW! which is rare for a old horror fan such as I. My ratings for this movie are

Red Sonja -1985
The film is about some evil group of masked people stealing a glowing orb and Sojnas quest to retrieve it. Red Sonja stars a All star cast of Brigette Neilson , Arnold Schwarzenegger , & ... Hmm guess that's it. I have said before I do try to avoid spoilers unless I feel necessary to discuss them. On Sonjas quest to find the villain I came to know as the bad queen she meets a few other people including a king and his last servant (who tries very hard to bring humor to a scene that is otherwise pointless) . Sonja also must go through other kingdoms to reach her goal where she also starts to trust men but also slays others. This film was poorly acted poorly choreographed and poor special effects even by 80s standards. Red Sonja did however draw out feelings in me I never knew I had such as my ability to yell at the TV f the arrows cut the zip line you soggy losers and to think the horse was stealing the scene. The action (which was mostly why I was there) was overall pretty good I just wish arnold would have stopped talking so much then wished I could just be watching Conan. Also Red Sonja as a comic movie was faaaar better than Nick Fury Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D but not up to the level of the first punisher film. So in closing my ratings are
Acting
** 2 stars
STFU Arnold
Visuals
**** 4 stars
Actually looked to have a good budget
Story
*** 3 stars
Meh cliche but not overly bad
Overall
** 2 stars
I wanted to give it three I really did but I can't even put it on the same level as judge dredd
